Conchotomy and Conchoplasty at the "Helуos" Surgery and Rehabilitation Center

Conchotomy and conchoplasty are surgical procedures used for the correction of nasal concha (turbinates) pathologies in conditions such as chronic rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps, and to restore normal nasal breathing.

At the "Helуos" Surgery and Rehabilitation Center, we apply modern technologies and methods for performing these surgeries, allowing us to achieve effective results while minimizing risks for our patients.

Conchotomy:

Conchotomy is a surgical operation in which a partial or complete removal of the tissue of the nasal turbinates (conchae) is performed to expand the nasal passages and improve breathing. This method is used when there is chronic nasal congestion due to hypertrophy (overgrowth) of the nasal turbinates.

Indications for Conchotomy:

Chronic rhinitis unresponsive to medication.
Allergic rhinitis leading to constant swelling and nasal congestion.
Hypertrophy of nasal turbinates.
Difficulty breathing through the nose due to narrowed nasal passages.

Conchoplasty:

Conchoplasty is a surgery aimed at correcting the nasal turbinates, such as reducing their size or repositioning them to restore normal nasal function. This method is used when it is necessary not only to remove swelling or inflammation but also to change the anatomical shape of the turbinates to improve breathing.

Indications for Conchoplasty:

Chronic nasal congestion caused by anatomical abnormalities of the turbinates.
Nasal polyps or breathing issues caused by enlarged turbinates.
Recurrent upper respiratory infections.

Methods of Performing the Procedures:

1.Minimally invasive methods:

Use of laser technology, radiofrequency ablation, or radiosurgery to reduce tissue without significant damage.
Advantages: minimal bleeding, quick recovery, no large scars.

2.Surgical methods:

Traditional surgical intervention using a scalpel to remove part or all of the enlarged turbinate.
Advantages: high effectiveness, complete removal of pathology.
